Aftermarket add-on steering wheel remote?

elBradford · 05-20-2009, 02:55 AM

Hello!

I have looked for the past hour for an add-on steering wheel remote. I think I've seen one packaged with an aftermarket deck a long time ago. I really would like to add the functionality of a steering wheel remote.

Anyone know of something that I could use? All I've seen so far are bridges between stock wheel remotes and a carPC.

are you talking about a remote that clips onto the steering wheel or using the buttons in the steering wheel that control the OEM radio

The latter. I have no buttons on my steering wheel besides cruise control. I would like to find something that clips on to the steering wheel in some manner.

Hello.
I guess you need something like these.
Most of these are resistance output, so you need a interface to connect them to CarPC's USB port.

i think he wants something like this

the link states that it's infrared, but i'm not sure because i've never had one, but if it is infrared you can use girder to map the buttons to a keyboard key

Those look great actually, and there is a lot of them. Is there a store that manufactures them? Link?

Edit: I looked at the source website for the picture (http://rcjoyeng.cafe24.com/) and I have been there before, but looking around I didn't see those products listed at all.

Thanks as well - I am wary of infrared because I've never really dealt with infrared on a pc and it sounds messy. I've seen no shortage of resistance based bridges as well.

There is a list of steering wheel remote controls.
